It boggles my mind that somehow, people are thinking any of this is good. I truly cannot fathom.

This whole thing is exhausting. It's a new low everyday and a new historical and monumental crisis on top. Completely obscene that we're living in times like these.

The bugs in battle were mostly tied to AI of the characters and redoing the enemy resistance order in memory.

It has helped immensely and things feel better as a whole. I still need to clean and add more arte checks for them, but I'm feeling far more confident in a proper release in the future.

Four months since my last post... Oof.

I haven't really made much progress on new content but I went back and refactored some ancient code and fixed several different bugs in battle.

Refactoring some of my old code helped tremendously with speed issues in battles that I created accidentally. (1/2)

Oh no this will be included for sure! It's actually a part of a pretty extensive story side quest that ties back into several things from earlier in the game.

There's a lot of planning to do still but I'm very excited about this one if I can pull it off well!

Absolutely! It's mainly myself writing with tons of advice from various users on discord when they're able to pitch in. Always looking for any help.

It's pretty difficult for me to write for some event changes and the new characters in general.

It's been a hot minute since I played this one but it was absolutely one of my favorite RE games.

I went to my hometown in WI to visit family, which is decently rural, and there are a surprising amount of people doing a protest. I didn't expect it considering it was usually bombarded with red.

Needless to say I was happy, but I'm still blown away.

Same! It was looking more horror oriented, but I'm very curious where the story will go. Moreso if Leon is involved in this game.

How are you feeling so far about the RE9 announcement?

YEEAHH!! Breath of Fire series are some of my absolute favorite RPGs! I'm so, so excited to see this series get even a little bit of love and recognition it deserves!

Something is wrong with this area... What's going on?

Such a beautiful Ion piece! I love it!

Double post but piercing artes, not so much. I might give him one. I've been reserving that for Brambard so he has a leg up on that over Chester, but Chester would be far stronger in the physical department over Brambard.

Yep yep! He'll have all his PS1 artes so he'll get Gale Sho which shoots multiple quick arrows.

He also has Wild Rain, which is slightly different, where it now shoots five energy shots in an arc fashion in succession. Though it might need to be altered a bit because it's not the best currently.

Thank you so much!! I'm sorry it's been taking so long but I'm truly hoping this will be a great experience for the people who play this version. It's never going to be perfect, but I'm proud of what it has turned out to be thus far.

My brother and I played this one often as kids! Took a while to get used to but it was a fun one once you figure how things work.

Got another mini event added from the PS1+ versions of the game! If you fail eight times, Klarth and Mint will dislike you just a tiiiiiny bit :)

Script is from the Phantasian Production PS1 fan translation with approval from Cless, the head of that project!

Still working on this steadily! I'm going through making sure all the events still work after doing a complete dump of them.

Buuuuuut it doesn't hurt to add more PS1 content into the SNES one while doing so! 😃

Oh this is beautifully done! Fantastic work!

That's the same on my end! It opened the door for so many games back then. I love this game and the series so much.

Having Breath of Fire listed, yes! That's not one I see get brought up often!

This is absolutely one of my favorites. Showed my friend who loves Ada and Resident Evil in general this and she was cackling.

I was tempted to start playing it because a couple friends are into it but then hearing about the layoffs completely ruined it for me...

I feel this. I'm excited to work on it when I'm at work thinking about what I want to do.... Get home from work and I'm too worn out. It's a vicious cycle

Thank you! I really appreciate this! I'm trying to do little things like this and I'm truly hoping it'll make an already great game even more interesting for veterans of the series and newcomers alike.

Did something completely unnecessary, but you know what, why not.

If, for SOME REASON, you grind until level 6 in the Sewers and Mint learns Antidote, the scene after will slightly variate. Honestly, it doesn't change by much. Meh 🤷

Oh I legit started crying for several minutes leading up to and after Garl. That was painful 😖

Although, not very nice to look back on as there'll be zero context to what the scene can relate to but not much to be done about that.

On that note. All dialogue code in the game now uses a 16-bit system instead of 8-bit so I can now call dialogue using any pointer in the game instead of being locked into very specific portions.

This helps immensely when adding new dialogue so I don't have to move or shuffle everything around.

Major updates behind the scenes but not something noticeable to players.

All event code of the game is now in a "readable format", term used very lightly.

With that, I've been moving all the updated events back into their original data, which saves a lot of ROM space.
